Hello all, After long time I am updating my blog with R There is a slight difference between R Database and application tier sizing information, based on a test upgrade from Oracle E-Business Suite Release These guidelines were derived using Oracle's hardware and networking infrastructure, and should only be used as a starting guide.

You should always size your systems based on tests using representative data and workloads for your own environments. In addition to the memory needed based on the sizing guidelines given, you should allow an extra 2 GB of free memory for the database tier machine, and an extra 3 GB of free memory for the application tier machine for Online Patching.

The sizing of transactions depends on the transaction type such as Oracle Application Framework, Forms, or batch programs , and the expected transaction workload light, medium, or heavy. Some transactions may require more memory such as those for Oracle Configurator.

The transactional workload is a function of user concurrency levels, user transaction frequency, and user adeptness. For instance, less adept users may increase the load on the system by performing less exact searches that would cause a full table scan instead of performing an index lookup. The following table shows the machine memory used for Oracle Application Framework-type transactions with light to medium workload characteristics:. Note: The figures in this table do not take into account any Online Patching requirements.

Important: Figures of this kind represent a minimum amount of memory, and your specific requirements may need more. On the application tier, each Oracle Forms process requires approximately 40 MB of memory. So the total memory required, using the average, is given by the formula:.

On the database tier, there is one Oracle Forms session per open form, and each of these sessions requires approximately 30 MB of PGA memory. The initial heap size Xms and maximum allocated heap Xmx should both be set to at least 2GB per users.

Only the value of Xmx has an effect on response time. Changing the value of Xms does not have an effect. For best results, use multiple managed instances.

For example, two managed instances with a 4 GB heap size for each will provide better response times than one JVM with a total heap size of 8 GB. Note: These guidelines are provided here to aid in your resource planning prior to installation. By default, Xms and Xmx are both set to MB during installation. You can configure the JVM parameters to alter these settings as part of performance tuning after the installation. If you need to accommodate more users, we recommend doing so by adding managed instances to the cluster.

The maximum heap size should be no more than 4 GB. The JVM heap size is dependent on the number of CPUs available for the JVM to support incremental and full garbage collection cycles, in addition to the actual concurrency workload. There are two benefits from scaling by using additional managed instances:.

Garbage collection GC activity is more easily balanced automatically with multiple managed instances. Each instance will be able to utilize a separate connection pool.

In essence, you need to maintain a balance between the allocated JVM heap size per instance and the available connection pool for that instance. Careful sizing is needed for the concurrent manager components, especially Java concurrent programs.

This is normally done via the options field of the define concurrent program screen. Note that when you increase the number of workers, the memory requirements may increase significantly: this is because each Java concurrent worker will require at least an amount of memory specified by the value of Xms. The figures were derived using Oracle's hardware and networking infrastructure, and are provided for general guidance only.

Automatic Workload Repository Advisory sections from test runs should be used to size relevant database memory components for the actual upgrade. Tip: To minimize unforeseen contingencies, prior to the actual upgrade it is essential to perform pre-production testing and validation on a comparable system to the production system. Note: The database tier and application tier are on the same machine in this example.

Note: During the upgrade of the Admin Tier, the batchsize and number of workers used were and 24 respectively. The following table shows the data for the example upgrade from Release The reduction in database size is a result of obsolete schemas and objects being removed from the upgraded system.

All three file systems in the Release The file system in use by the running application is never patched. All patches are applied to the secondary file system. You must follow all the relevant steps in this section before you begin the installation. Before running Rapid Install, you must follow the applicable instructions in several critical documents. If you do not do so, your installation or upgrade may fail.

As described in Document Ensure that you follow the instructions in the relevant Oracle E-Business Suite platform-specific Installation and Upgrade document as listed in the operating system requirements and in Document If you are planning to use a logical hostname for the application tier, then you must refer to Section 5. In addition to meeting the prerequisites described in this book and in the platform-specific notes, you should also ensure you understand the licensing agreement for your organization.

Before running Rapid Install, you must create the operating system accounts that will be used in the installation of the database node and application tier node file systems. The details of creating these accounts depend on whether you are using a UNIX system or Windows system.

Consult the appropriate operating system documentation as required. The operating system user that owns the database file system and starts the database services is called the oracle user. This user must be created with a primary group of 'dba'.

The operating system user that owns the Oracle E-Business Suite file system and starts the application tier services is called the applmgr user. The names of both these accounts must be the same on all nodes in an Oracle E-Business Suite system. Additionally, the account ID, group name, and group ID must also all match on all nodes. In order to prepare for a single-user installation, you must first create an oracle user account and log in as the oracle user to run Rapid Install.

The account should be created with a default shell that is compatible with the Bourne shell. The command unset ENV can be used to unset the variable if necessary. In order to prepare for a multi-user installation, you must first create an oracle user account and an applmgr user account.

Both should be created with a default shell that is compatible with the Bourne shell. Log in as root to run Rapid Install. Important: Ensure that the Xauthority file named.

Xauthority with correct entries exists under the respective home directories of both the oracle user and the applmgr user. The oracle user is the account that owns the database node technology stack database Oracle home and the database files. On systems consisting of multiple nodes, you can assign one user account to be the owner of the database node file system, and another to be the owner of the application tier node file system.

For this type of install, Rapid Install can install both nodes in one run if the install is started by the root user. If you are installing on a machine with only one node to install, or with all nodes sharing the same user, you can run the install as either the root user or the specific user for those nodes.

If you plan to install Oracle E-Business Suite in an Oracle RAC environment, and you plan to use job role separation to manage operating system permissions for Oracle Automatic Storage Management, Oracle Grid Infrastructure, and Oracle software installations, then follow these instructions to create the appropriate operating system users and groups with which to install the Oracle software to use this feature. This configuration divides the administration privileges at the operating system level.

In these instructions, the grid user is the owner of the Oracle Grid Infrastructure software and Oracle Automatic Storage Management binaries, and the oracle user is the owner of the Oracle RAC software binaries. Both users must have an Oracle Inventory group such as oinstall as their primary group. Additional Information: See the Oracle Grid Infrastructure installation documentation for your release:.

You can create several operating system groups in order to separate the various administration privileges. The following table shows the recommended operating system groups that provide a high degree of separation while meeting the permission requirements for running Rapid Install.

Create the oinstall , asmadmin , asmdba , and asmoper groups using the following commands. You must run these commands with root privileges. Use the following command to create a user named grid and assign the necessary groups to that user.

The grid user will own the Oracle Grid Infrastructure. Create the dba and oper groups using the following commands. Use the following command to create a user named oracle and assign the necessary groups to that user. The oracle user will own the Oracle RAC software. This user must have the asmadmin and asmdba groups assigned when you use different users for the Oracle Grid and Oracle software. Ensure that you set the resource limits for the Oracle software installation users following the Oracle Grid Infrastructure documentation.

On Windows, the user who runs Rapid Install owns the file system for all components both the database file system and the Oracle E-Business Suite file system. Before you install Oracle E-Business Suite, make sure the user account for the installation has full local administrative privileges, and permission to print to either local or network printers.

We recommend that you create a new domain-level account for example, oracle and make it a member of these groups:. This account does not need to be a member of any other group, and cannot be a member of the GUEST group. Refer to Windows Help for information on creating accounts and assigning accounts to groups. Conditional Action: Depending on the Oracle Grid version, perform the prerequisite steps listed in the corresponding document:.

My Oracle Support Knowledge Document The Rapid Install wizard provides input screens to gather system-specific values for configuring a new or upgraded system. If you collect the necessary information before you begin, the installation or upgrade will be completed more rapidly. Important: You should be familiar with system requirements, resources, and product licensing agreements before you run Rapid Install. You should also have a adequate understanding of Oracle DBA and system administrator responsibilities.

Note: When you are entering values for Rapid Install, ensure that you specify the actual locations for the directories involved, so that AD utilities can properly identify the directories afterward.

Do not specify the directory locations as symbolic links. Rapid Install needs to be told the locations of the top-level directories and mount points on the database node, and the application tier node or nodes.

It derives subdirectories from these top-level directories. Important: Only the values for the base directories can be specified. The derived values for other directories must be left at the default values that are calculated by Rapid Install. Licensed products are those specified in your licensing agreement with Oracle. During the installation, Rapid Install automatically installs all products, country-specific functionalities localized products , and required shared products in the database and in the file system, regardless of license status.

However, you must indicate on the Rapid Install wizard screens which products and country-specific functionalities you have licensed. Rapid Install then registers them as active in your system.

Setting the license status for Oracle E-Business Suite products correctly is critical as this status is referenced during patching and other system-wide maintenance. You can use the License Manager utility to activate additional products after installation. However, unlicensing a product is not supported, and there are only limited options for correcting the status of a product that was inadvertently marked as licensed. Because it offers support for the Unicode AL32UTF8 character set, you can, if required, run a number of languages in a single instance.

You choose the character set for both the database and application products when you run Rapid Install. Important: The choice of character sets should be made carefully. It is possible to convert from some character sets to others at a later stage, but there are restrictions. The profile options for language and territory are configured at the site level when you run Rapid Install.

The language you choose as the base language is used for the language profile. The default settings for date and number formats are derived from the territory profile setting. The various features and components of Oracle E-Business Suite require the availability of a large number of ports on your system. To simplify deployment and management of the various ports, Oracle E-Business Suite includes the concept of a port pool.

The port pool concept includes a mechanism for determining a default base value for each type of port; formatted values, which often contain multiple ports; and a mechanism for determining a unique value for each pool. The net result of this is that there are different port pools sets , which are guaranteed to contain non-overlapping values.

You simply specify the pool you want to use, and a consistent set of port values are chosen for all the required ports. This section describes the tasks you need to perform to download the Release Caution: Network-attached storage devices such as NFS-mounted disk volumes can be used for the stage area.

However, you must use the correct mount options to avoid possible installation failure or performance issues. Required Action: Follow the instructions in Section 1. Creating a new stage area is a multiple-step process. You must first create a directory, called StageR , into which you will download the installation software mentioned above. Next you unzip the requisite files and run the build script. Then you patch the stage area with the latest consolidated fixes.

After this, you are ready to run Rapid Install. This section describes the steps to follow. Important: Do not attempt to re-use an existing stage area that was created with startCD Tip: Ensure that the directory has sufficient space for the downloaded installation files and for the content that will be extracted from those files.

See Stage Area. Issue the appropriate command for your operating system in the desired location on the file system. After creating the stage area directory, you must download into that directory the components of the latest Oracle E-Business Suite Release It is obtainable in zip format from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.

Suggested Reading: Before you download the files, read the Release Notes for the specific release you are installing. By default, all available files are selected. Update the file list to select only the required files. Oracle Web Tier If you are performing an on-premises installation or upgrade, choose Download to start the download into your stage directory.

For further instructions on downloading software or patches onto Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, see Section 6. Verify that you have downloaded all the required files, and only those files, into your stage directory. For the complete set of files for a given Part Number, you need all the zip files from 1 to M. Warning: Do not download any other software components into the stage area, or the installation process may fail. After you have downloaded the components listed above, unzip only the "Oracle E-Business Suite Release This script has several functions, which are selected from a series of menus.

A key function is to unzip the rest of the installation software for subsequent use by Rapid Install. In the process, various subdirectories are created under the stage area. Important: Running the buildStage script is a mandatory pre-installation step. The buildStage options you should choose depend on whether you have an existing stage area or not.

Use this option if you want to create a new stage area, for example if you are performing an installation from scratch.

It will unzip the downloaded software and apply the one-off patches. Note: When using startCD Consequently, you must not use any existing stage area created with an earlier startCD version. Instead, create a new stage area to obtain the currently required Oracle Fusion Middleware Web Tier Utilities patch set. On platforms other than Windows, choosing this option will display a submenu that shows the available platforms:.

Note: For a stage area on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, the only platform you can choose is option 2, Linux x On Windows, the platform submenu does not appear; instead, the script proceeds directly to this prompt. On platforms other than Windows, choosing option 2 will display the submenu that shows the available platforms:. On Windows, the platform submenu does not appear; instead, the script proceeds directly to staging the patches. After running the buildStage script, you should patch the stage area with the latest consolidated fixes since the release of the current StartCD.

For StartCD When prompted for the location of the Rapid Install stage, enter the path to the stage area you created for StartCD Tip: Run the script as the same user that you used to run the buildStage script when creating the stage area. Re-run the buildStage.

Important: Re-running the buildStage script with the option Copy patches to existing stage area is a mandatory pre-installation step.

From the following buildStage menu, choose option 2, Copy patches to existing stage area. On platforms other than Windows, choosing this option will display a submenu that shows the available platforms. Specify the platform on which you want to install Oracle E-Business Suite. The startCD directory contains Rapid Install itself in a subdirectory called Disk1 , plus supporting files and documentation.

Now that the stage directory has been created and the downloaded Oracle E-Business Suite software unzipped, the next task is to ensure your system provides a suitable global inventory location. On a shared file system, the global inventory location must be shared and used by all participating nodes. The use of a local inventory per Oracle E-Business Suite installation is not currently supported.

Note: If your system has separate installation user accounts for the database and the applications, both accounts must be in the same install group dba in this example. If the oraInst. You are now ready to start Rapid Install as shown in the examples below. The exact path will depend on the disk location you specified for your staging area.

Note: If the database and application tiers will be located on the same machine and owned by the same user, RapidWiz must be run by that user. If they will be located on the same machine but owned by different users, RapidWiz must be run by the root user. This restricted patch file system setup is only a transitional setup to reduce the file system installation time.

Before running any lifecycle management actions, you must upgrade your instance to a If required, you can add parameters to the Rapid Install startup command to change its behavior. You can identify the version of Rapid Install for example, If you want to use an alias not the actual name of the host machine , use the -servername parameter when you start Rapid Install. Then follow the applicable instructions in Finishing Tasks to finish the installation.

If you want to use the specialized Rapid Install option that allows you to replace selected technology stack executables in an existing instance, follow the steps in Maintaining the Technology Stack.

Installation Strategies and Terminology The installation process for Oracle E-Business Suite has been designed to provide as much flexibility as possible, enabling you to install a basic system and subsequently add machines in order to meet specific deployment requirements or simply the need for growth.

The following terms are used when installing Oracle E-Business Suite: A server is the traditional term for a process that provides a particular functionality. New Installation Standard In a new Standard installation, you define many aspects of the configuration.

Apply the minimum required operating system versions and updates. Size the hardware to meet transactional requirements. Create the required operating system users and groups.

Prepare the Oracle Grid infrastructure conditional. Download and stage the Release Perform a new installation Standard or Express using Rapid Install.

Apply the latest technology stack updates. Update to the latest Oracle E-Business Suite code. Apply the latest security patches. Apply all recommended patches. Deploy customizations, external integrations, and third-party integrations.

Perform advanced configurations. Technology Stack Components Rapid Install automatically installs and configures the required technology stack components for both the database node and the application tier node. The application tier node technology stack includes, among other components: Oracle Application Server 10g Combining custom applications into the Oracle E-Business Suite technology stack is not recommended for the following reasons: Difficulty in isolating and debugging performance or stability issues Increased security risk if either a custom application or Oracle E-Business Suite is compromised Complexity in maintaining the technology stack if either a custom application or Oracle E-Business Suite has dependencies on older component versions Complexity in obtaining support for issues on nonstandard environments Instead, it is recommended that you deploy a custom application and its required technology stack prerequisites on a separate server.

System Software, Patch Level, and Networking Requirements This section describes system software requirements, patch level requirements in multinode installations, and essential networking requirements. Operating System Requirements in a Multinode Installation In a multinode installation, all application tier nodes are required to be on the same platform and operating system.
